I wonder what 'BC' stands for considering the content of their posts.

Perhaps start by jettisoning this incompetence we have of selling our best players for barely half of their market value and giving Monchi and Vidagany their marching orders then....

Why?

Because he thinks the player who left for £70mil should have been sold for £150mil. The same player Fenerbache have just loaned and is already at the centre of controversy.

In my lifetime of a Villa fan I’ve often felt we’ve been a bit crap in the transfer market. We’ve found gems, yes, but quite often we’ve not really been savvy. Often losing our best player and not replacing well. Buying old players with no sell on value. In very recent years, pre this revolution, buying new signings on huge salaries and long term contracts, especially players with very suspect attitudes.

Finally we’ve got our act together and we look professional, clever and quite wise as well as building something quite special with an alternative plan in generating money with the young player market and BC is shit.

FTFY
